As said in the DIYaudio thread, it's a shame there's not a small woofer version, like 4". That's where I'd find these best served. I currently run 8" JBL coaxials front and rear (bipole-ish) but cross them at 150 to dual 12"s. I don't want to get my midbass from the coax if at all avoidable.

The JBLs are from the 328CT. Not a "home hifi" setup but it's one of the few that uses the cone as a waveguide, and is well-made. It's also tuned to run with a waveguide sort of baffle, which I duplicated in wood. That was some heavy effort!

Not sure if you're kidding or not but since the driver is directly connected to the amplifier no change will be effected upon the drivers transfer function unless the amplifiers output impedance is considerable.....

My mistake, the parallel filter looks to just be there to drop the impedance peak at the crossover region, maybe to make it more "tube friendly". Anyway, the part about the driver being good enough to use without a filter is a joke, though I doubt it sounds terrible as-is, but it's not what I would do.
